The sound of metal clashing continued to echo in the cabin.
Xifa has been back at Hogwarts for three days. It can also be said that Xifa has been in coma for three days!
Fortunately, Xifa subconsciously felt a long-lost sense of security.
When he woke up, he had recovered completely.
Now, with no serious health problems, he is wielding a forging hammer and putting the finishing touches on his customized weapon.
When going out, Gryffindor's sword was quite easy to use, but in the end, Xifa still wanted a single-edged sword.
After much deliberation, the final design was a slender tachi.
Because the material is quite special, and a lot of magic patterns need to be added to the material.
Therefore, during the entire process, there is basically no way to use magic means to assist forging.
Therefore, now Xifa is personally wielding a hammer as tall as himself, hammering the original materials into the rough embryo of the sword.
Beside him, Elise tacitly controlled the temperature of the flames under the forging table.
Seeing that Xifa had completed the first stage of forging, she tacitly used magic to control a towel to wipe the sweat from Xifa's face.
There is no need to be polite, Xifa turned his head and smiled at Elise, and then gave instructions to Luna and Cassandra who were standing on both sides of the forging platform.
"Luna, Cassandra! Help me fix the end of the knife!"
"OK!"
I saw that each of them was holding a pair of large pliers that were even longer than them, and they were firmly fixing the rough embryo on the forging table!
"Xifa! Are you sure you want to make an inlaid hole at the end of the sword?"
"Of course! I'm sure! This is the weapon style that appeared in my dream when I was unconscious!"
"Are you sure you can still dream after being comatose?!"
"Not sure...but when I wanted to make this knife, I always felt that I should leave this inlay hole!"
Facing Elise's inquiry, Xifa was a little hesitant, but following his feeling, he finally made a firm decision.
"Okay, this is your weapon! You have the final say!"
Elise shrugged helplessly and drew a circle with the wand in her hand. For a moment, the temperature of the forging furnace soared again.
"Xifa! Don't you consider my opinion? Wouldn't it be better to make a long wand? It's not like you can't lift it!"
"No! I'm so young, why am I using a cane like an old man!"
"How about those two daggers!"
"I don't really like the dual-sword style of play..."
While the furnace temperature was rising, Xifa rejected Luna and Cassandra's suggestions one by one.
"Okay! Since the gift you brought us is pretty good, I won't argue with you!"
What to care about?
Is it my fault that my weapons didn’t take your opinions into consideration?!
Fortunately, Xifa understood them, so he laughed and let it go.
During this trip, Xifa really brought back a lot of good things.
Such as the magical landscape paintings of the African continent, the eggs and cubs of some magical animals, and the seeds or seedlings of some magical plants.
Of course, the most important thing was that Xifa decided to make an inlay hole for his weapon.
It was the magic crystal that exploded after he hunted monsters.
Like before, the main source of power for the magic weapon was the wizard himself and the magic power obtained by squeezing the life force of some magical animals.
But now, the best alternative has appeared, magic crystal!
Don't look at the monster's low combat power in the eyes of Xifa and Newt.
Ordinary little wizards are really no match for them.
At least at the speed of a cheetah's running speed, the horned camel's defensive power is comparable to the bite force of a lion.
If the magic crystal produced is used in a steady stream, it will be no less than an ordinary little wizard.
If used as a disposable consumable, it is comparable to the full power of an Auror.
"Don't you really think it's useless?"
Seeing that Xifa had already punched out the holes, he just needed to finally add the corresponding magic patterns.
Elise couldn't help but continue to persuade.
"To be honest, it's really tasteless...but I think this should be added! You can use it without it, but you can't live without it!"
It can be seen that Xifa did not know why he insisted on adding this inlaid hole.
Elise sighed softly and told Xifa bit by bit about the magic pattern she had conceived.
It's a delicate job...
Xifa's mind received the three-dimensional magic pattern drawn by Elise.
He weighed the hammer, which was about the size of a washbasin, and threw it aside.
He reached out toward the hammer stand next to him, and a small hammer the size of a bowl fell into his hand.
And the big hammer, which was as tall as his height, did not fall heavily to the ground.
As a mature hammer, it has a mind of its own.
The moment it was about to land, it slowed down its steps, landed quietly on the ground, and then jumped and ran to its favorite corner to lie down.
"So many magic patterns!"
After carefully analyzing the complicated and sophisticated three-dimensional magic pattern structure, Xifa's expression collapsed.
"What reason do you have to complain! It's not your request!" Elise rolled her eyes at Xifa.
Suddenly, Xifa was speechless.
"Okay, okay! Cheer up! Let's build this sword in one go!"
In the end, Luna came out to smooth things over, and Cassandra also blinked in cooperation.
"Okay! It's been a long time since I entered the palace of thinking! I wonder if you are unfamiliar with it!"
"Xifa...you have to worry that you are unfamiliar!" Yili revealed the truth without mercy, because the three of them were always together, and Xifa was the one who went out alone!
"Yes...yeah..." Xifa pretended to be stupid and stood obediently.
...
Once they got down to business, the jokes between the four of them disappeared instantly.
One of the great benefits of the Thought Palace is that it can synchronize everyone's thinking.
A mechanical pocket watch has countless small parts.
If it is purely handmade, it would take a skilled watchmaker about a day to assemble it from scratch.
Not to mention that the magic patterns that Westerners have to assemble are much more complicated than the mechanical structure of a clock!
Fortunately, he is not working alone.
First, Elise determines which part of the magic pattern should be inscribed from the beginning.
Then, she placed one hand on the pot of blue potion prepared by Luna.
Wave your wand quickly with your other hand.
After a while, a mysterious magic pattern appeared in her palm.
When the condensation is completed, the blue magic potion begins to fill the veins composed of these magic powers.
After the magic pattern was completely infected by the magic potion.
Elise raised her hand.
The magic pattern parts in her hand came to Xifa's hands.
Xifa took it, weighed it for a moment, and slapped it on the bottom of the forging hammer.
The bowl-sized hammer surface squirmed rapidly, wrapping up the magic pattern in the blink of an eye, in less than half a second.
The hammer surface becomes as thick as the tip of a pen.
Obviously, the magic pattern was shrunk by the forging hammer!
Xifa was not surprised by these changes in the forging hammer. He exerted force with one hand and swung the hammer at such a fast speed that the sound of breaking through the air suddenly sounded in the room.
Ding--
Crisp sound.
As expected of Luna and Cassandra, they steadily adjusted the blade to the most suitable position.
All you need to do is swing the hammer mechanically!
The whole process seems to take a long time, but in fact, the speed of inscribing the magic pattern all depends on how fast Xifa's hammer can be swung!
